Have you tried the Garland County historical or genealogical society for Tombstone readings? The WPA did them in the 30's and 50's and there should be a copy somewhere. It will locate her tombstone, grave and hopefully have written upon it a date of death, even if there is no death certificate registered. Not so uncommon in rural areas. -- *************************************************** Diana J.
